  • Type 3000
    • Characteristics:
      Structure Record based
      Data Non-Homogeneous
      Example testxy3000.prm
    • Notes:
      • Unlike Type 5000 files, Type 3000 files allow "gaps" between records.
        • This allows a Type 3000 file to be created from an existing binary file.
      • Type 3000 files are rarely PLOT'ed. They are typically LIST'ed.
    • Example:
